I'm a UC Blog

Yesterday Apple hosted it’s regular “Media Event” and launched a new Nano, iTunes 9 and version 3.1 of the iPhone/Touch firmware.

New features include:

• Genius Recommendations for Apps
• Genius Mixes
• Download Ringtones Wirelessly
• Organize Apps in iTunes
• Improved syncing for music, movies, TV shows, podcasts, and photos
• iTunes U content organization
• Redeem iTunes Gift Cards, codes, and certificates in the App Store
• Display available iTunes account credits in the App Store and iTunes Store
• Save video from Mail and MMS into Camera Roll
• Option to “Save as new clip” when trimming a video on iPhone 3GS
• Better iPhone 3G Wi-Fi performance when Bluetooth is turned on
• Remotely lock iPhone with a passcode via MobileMe
• Use Voice Control on iPhone 3GS with Bluetooth headsets
• Paste phone numbers into the keypad
• Option to use Home button to turn on accessibility features on iPhone 3GS
• Warn when visiting fraudulent websites in Safari (anti-phishing)
• Improved Exchange calendar syncing and invitation handling
• Fixes issue that cause some app icons to display incorrectly

Personally I hope this improves battery life as since the v3 release I have noticed a drastic decrease in talk/standby time. To update, “Gentlemen start your iTunes” (after you are forced to upgrade to v9 -probably)
